Matcha Ice Cream (Green Tea Soft Serve)

For the next few weeks we are in Japan on vacation! Don’t worry I have some serious deliciousness for you while we’re away…and get ready for upcoming posts on the best places in Kyoto to eat & visit!

It’s been 5 years since our first trip, and one of my best memories was eating green tea soft serve ice cream cones from street vendors. At the time I wasn’t plant-based, so I’ve recreated one of my all time favorite recipes, blender banana ice cream, with a flavor that reminds me of my travels in Japan. This very simple ‘ice cream’ is made in a couple of minutes with only 3 ingredients.

Matcha is powdered green tea, and a little goes a long way. It’s intense smoky flavor pairs great with the sweet and creamy frozen bananas. If you’ve never made blender banana ice cream give it a try. Here’s ice cream that is actually good for you and better tasting!

This recipe is fat-free, refined sugar free, delicious, and natural. Enjoy this meal anytime of the day (yes, breakfast!) or share with friends as a snack.
